In this episode, we update you with some Quick Science, including: a new method for validating whether food products are vegan, the impact that having a diverse number of companion animals as a child has on going vegan as an adult, physicians prescribing plant-based diets and the environmental impacts if Sweden when vegan. And we speak with two researchers from Miami, USA, about what we can do to improve Virtual Reality experiences to increase empathy for animals.
